Family Fun Run
Family Fun Run
Join us this summer for our Family Fun Run, a fun and active event designed for children aged 3–12 and their families.
Taking place on Saturday, July 4, 2026 from 9.30am to 11.30am, the route will start on Strawberry Place, head into Leazes Park, and complete a lap before finishing next to the bandstand.
Entry is just £5 for children, with adults running free, making it an affordable way for the whole family to get involved. At the finish line, there’ll be a range of activities for all ages, plus every child will receive a finisher’s medal to celebrate their achievement.
This event has been supported with a grant from Robson Laidler Accountants.
